.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
\fBCREATE USER\fR
is now an alias for
CREATE ROLE (\fBCREATE_ROLE\fR(7))\&. The only difference is that when the command is spelled
\fBCREATE USER\fR,
LOGIN
is assumed by default, whereas
NOLOGIN
is assumed when the command is spelled
\fBCREATE ROLE\fR\&.
.SH "COMPATIBILITY"
.PP
The
\fBCREATE USER\fR
statement is a
PostgreSQL
extension\&. The SQL standard leaves the definition of users to the implementation\&.
